What is PD IEC/TR 62316 - OTDR and single-mode fibres ?
An optical time-domain reflectometer (OTDR) is a precision instrument used to locate events or faults along with a fibre link, typically within an optical communications network. The reliability and quality of an OTDR are based on its accuracy, measurement range, ability to resolve and measure closely spaced events, measurement speed, and ability to perform satisfactorily under various environmental extremes and after various types of physical abuse.
PD IEC/TR 62316 is a technical report, that aims to provide guidelines for the interpretation of backscattering traces, as obtained by traditional optical time domain reflectometers (OTDRs) – not including polarization OTDRs – for single-mode fibres. Also, backscattered power effects are discussed in the case of unidirectional trace.
PD IEC/TR 62316 describes measurement and interpretation of OTDR the backscattered power.
